Breathe in: “I believe in God the Father”

Breathe out: “in Jesus Christ His only son”

Breathe in: “and the Holy Spirit”

Some of my most transforming moments have been when I take the time to meditate on God and His word. I take long deep breaths.

Breathe out: “I believe in God the Father”

Breathe in: “in Jesus Christ His only son”

Breathe out: “and the Holy Spirit”

In the stillness of the early morning I take time to recognize who He is, praise Him for it, and lay flat on the ground in His presence.

Breathe in: “I believe in God the Father”

Breathe out: “in Jesus Christ His only son”

Breathe in: “and the Holy Spirit”

I use this time NOT to make my requests known; God knows I do that all too often. I use this special time only to show Him my respect, adoration, and humility.

Breathe out: “I believe in God the Father”

Breathe in: “in Jesus Christ His only son”

Breathe out: “and the Holy Spirit”

Sometimes I choose scripture to meditate on. It’s amazing how easy it is to memorize scripture when my mind is cleared and I am focused only on pleasing my Lord.

Breathe in: “I believe in God the Father”

Breathe out: “in Jesus Christ His only son”

Breathe in: “and the Holy Spirit”

Before I know it, 30 minutes has passed and I must begin my day. I have given God my first moments of the day; saved that time just for Him and me. I can see the difference in myself and I believe others see it too. God transforms me whenever I spend time with Him.

Won’t you meet with Him too?

Love in Christ
